Listening Precautions

x This product respects the current regulations for limiting the output volume of

consumer audio devices to a safe level. By listening to your device with
headphones or ear buds at high volumes, you run the risk of permanent
damage to your ears. Even if you get used to listening at high volumes and it
seems normal to you, you still risk the possibility of dam-aging your hearing.
Reduce the volume of your device to a reasonable level to avoid permanent
hearing damage. If you hear ringing in your ears, reduce the volume or shut
off your device. Other types of headphones may produce higher volume
levels. (At full power, the prolonged listening of the Walkman can damage
the ear of the use炸

x Maximum output voltage<=150mv

x Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard

and is illegal in many areas.

x You should use extreme caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially

hazardous situations created by obstructed hearing.

x Even if your headphones or earphones are the open-air type designed to let

you hear outside sounds, do not turn up the volume so high that you cannot
hear what is around you.

x Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to

higher volumes of sound. What sounds “normal” can actually be loud and

harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting the volume of your
device at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.

x Start your volume control at a low setting.

x Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly

without distortion. Once you have established a comfortable sound level,
leave it there.
